Creeps and losers coming out of the woodwork

The lunatic base of the Republican Party along with all the unaffiliated filth and scum of this country is solidly in Der Trumpenfuehrer's corner. In response the Republican establishment elite are dragging out every body they can get their hands on in support of their Trump Lite, The Next Messiah, Ted Cruz.

The Texas senator got a big boost from anti-Trump forces Friday when 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney announced on Facebook that he would vote for Cruz in Utah, which has caucuses Tuesday. Former Texas Sen. Phil Gramm, who ran for president in 1996, issued a statement endorsing Cruz as a “fearless leader” and promised to work for his election. Gramm was named the campaign’s senior adviser on economic issues and a liaison to members of Congress.

“This week, in the Utah nominating caucus, I will vote for Senator Ted Cruz,” said Romney, who stopped short of a full endorsement, saying he also liked the remaining contender, Ohio Gov. John Kasich...

Cruz is about 230 delegates behind Trump and hopes to block him from winning the 1,237 delegates needed outright for the nomination by the Republican National Convention in Cleveland in July. If Trump falls short, that would open the convention to other competitors after the first ballot, in which delegates are expected to vote for the candidate to whom they are pledged...

As part of a big fund-raising push, several of the pro-Cruz superPACs that operated separately have united under Trusted Leadership PAC. “We’re going for the late-breaking Ted Cruz vote,” said Kellyanne Conway, president of one of the groups, Keep the Promise I, who said in an interview that the combined superPac just received over $2 million in donations. “Trump gets his voters early.”

Romney still knows how to hedge a bet as he keeps one eye on Kasich, but Miss Lindsey Graham has gone whole hog for Ted, calling for more smelling salts as she lay prostrate on her fainting couch.
